An interesting course allowing a dive into legendary Robert Shiller's research on what drives this world, promoting an interdisciplinary approach in research and finally even encouraging students to use the acquired knowledge in creating one's own narrative. Even English not being my native language, attending this course has not been too difficult to follow. Maybe use an online dictionary to look up the one or other expression used.

I found this course fascinating! The perspective of narratives affecting the economy is something that I have seen, particularly leading up to the Great Recession, but I couldn't really put a name to it.

I enjoyed Dr. Shiller's examples and how he brought in a wide variety of source material. My reading list has been extensively added to.

I recommend this course to those interested in how human beliefs produce causations.

This is such an engaging course. Professor Shiller makes otherwise very complex topics seem so easy to understand, and it is fascinating to see how he draws examples of his propositions from such a wide range of real-life sources, from Ancient Greece to modern pop songs. This is a superb course, and I recommend it 100% - it will have you looking forward to each new video and wondering what you will learn each time.

Excellent perspective on the role of narrative overall and the criteria that help explain why some narratives go viral and influence economic activity. Very compelling application of SIR model to shed light on the mechanics of narrative. Professor Shiller's development and articulation of narrative economics is also a perfect example of the best that comes from cross-discipline thinking which he rightly espouses.

It is important to emphasize the efforts of Coursera and YALE University, since it makes available to people who really want to give value to learning; these tools that brings us closer and closer to our goals, since many times the limitation is based simply on the monetary resource. Many thanks to Professor Shiller, for sharing part of his knowledge to the new generations.

Kind regards from Colombia.

A nice short course about narratives and their impact on not only the economy but also our daily lives. In the course, I can see many repeated narratives, and the way they evolve and change through time. Now, I am more aware of those, doing fact-checking and staying open to new ideas. Thanks, Professor Shiller, for another great contribution.

Thanks Robert Shiller, for another fantastic course. This content brings in a great perspective on the various faculties of thought, that impact Economics, Finance, and many other industries. The lectures are filled with fantastic anecdotes, that keep it real, and interesting subject matter along the learning journey. Highly recommended !

This was a really interesting topic of study. Professor Schiller explained the field ofNarrative Economics in an easy-to-absorb way. He brought up past stories about how narratives can be epidemic and affect our behavior. I believe the most useful thing I learned was paying attention to how stories are told and how topics go viral.

Un excelente curso, dinámico y fluido, repleto de referencias y ejemplos prácticos sobre la aplicación de esta nueva aproximación. El profesor Schiller presenta el contenido de manera accesible y mantiene tu atención en todo momento. Es un curso altamente práctico, que te permite concluir con el dominio de una nueva herramienta.

Best course in all of my undergraduate and graduate studies until now! But I am sure that the course on financial markets with professor Shiller will be at least equally good as said course. His lectures motivated me to pursue a graduate degree at Yale (preferably a double degree MBA/PhD)

Профессор Шиллер великолепно излагает материал: просто, понятно, объективно и в позитивной форме. Курс "Нарративная экономика" дал мне ответ на вопрос как формируются экономические истории. Профессор Шиллер вдохновил меня "написать" свою историю и прожить её с удовольствием.

Prof Shiller has put together a course that encompasses everyday events including the way that changes peoples perceptions over time and through adversities. This course has immense purpose and vision to capture the imagination of people across all pursuations. Salute Sir.

It's really insightful toward how the narratives shape not only toward our life but also contributing to many social and economical impacts. This course enable us to open our eyes and adopt the way narratives could influence our decisions. I highly recommend it!

Sincerely thanks for Mr. doctor Shiler,you give me the opportunity and courage to search this wonderful land.

I promise that I would complete my own personal narrative of my youth dream in economics,with great passion and the spirit of never giving up.

Fascinating approachable course enriched with examples from across disciplines from music to jokes about 10-year deliveries on cars in Russia back in Reagan's day. Narratives that infiltrate societal decisions. Recommended.

I really enjoyed this course. It's a surprising way of looking at economics. Some disciplines appear to be going in the opposite direction. For example psychology moving away from Freud and Jung towards neuroscience.

Absolutely contagious content. Inhaled it in only 3 days as it was really catchy and very interesting explained with lots of good comparisons. Also rounded up with interesting quiz questions. Thank you for that course!

Nos invita a realizar un razonamiento critico sobre ideas que surgen en la historia las cuales si se les da tiempo y espacio, pueden llegar a impactar sobre la economía y en otros campos de la vida y la educación.

Very useful course. Provides many inter-disciplinary links and explanations for historical events and gives attention to the power and tendency of narratives and how they bleed into society's decision-making.

It is a new domain and efforts are laudable. Prof Shiller himself mentions in one of his videos that sometime in future taxonomy of narrative economics may be in place, with the efforts of people like him.

It was a so engaging and interesting course. I am very happy and satisfied not that now I have a new insight to things happening around me and influencing my behavior. Looking foreword to similar course.

This course was absolutely worth the time and effort. Professor Shiller beautifully explains some new concepts and ideas about Narrative Economics. He does an amazing job at keeping the course exciting.

A very insightful and approachable course about the effects of human biases over the economic landscape and how social trends tend to leave a permanent mark on history and exact sciences like finance.

I really enjoyed this course, it opened my eyes so much and I might keep going even though I only took this course out of fun, I was very interested in this topic. lucky me it Was interesting! Thanks

It's a real good course full of history lessons and its narrative expressions that have forged our current economy! The Professor explains everything very clearly and makes it a very fun experience!
